Abstract--Using multicast delivery to multiple receivers reduces the aggregate bandwidth required from the network compared to using unicast delivery to each receiver. However mult...
This paper presents a mobile tracking scheme that exploits the predictability of user mobility patterns in wireless PCS networks. Instead of the constant velocity fluid-flow or the...
Abstract--As a growing number of web sites introduce mirrors to increase throughput, the challenge for clients becomes determining which mirror will offer the best performance when...
We consider designing near video on demand (VoD) systems that minimize start-up latency while maintaining high image quality. Recently several research teams have developed period...
